mirror_source_language.py — give every source-language string its own
translation in the source language's .ts file.

    python3 misc/i18n/mirror_source_language.py lang/qet_fr.ts
    python3 misc/i18n/mirror_source_language.py --check lang/qet_fr.ts

WHY THIS EXISTS

The strings in the code are French, and they are both the translation
key and the text the French UI shows. lang/qet_fr.ts was almost empty:
an empty entry falls back to the code text at run time, so French never
needed a translation. The price is that a French wording fix is a key
change, which orphans the translation of that string in every other
language file.

With every French string mirrored into qet_fr.ts, the French UI is
served from qet_fr.qm like any other language, and French wording can
be corrected in the .ts alone. The key in the code then only has to
stay stable.

WHAT IT DOES

For every message whose translation is empty, the source text is copied
into the translation and the entry is finished. Nothing else changes:

  - a translation with text is never touched, whether it is a French
    rendering of an English source, identical to the source, or marked
    unfinished (a translator's work in progress);
  - vanished and obsolete entries are left to lupdate;
  - in a plural message only the empty <numerusform>s are filled;
  - the file stays byte-identical outside the rewritten <translation>
    elements: header, locations, comments, indentation, escaping.

The source text is copied as lupdate wrote it, escaping included, so
&apos; stays &apos;. A <source> with a child element (lupdate's <byte/>)
is refused rather than guessed at.

Run it after `cmake --build . --target update_translations`, before
committing. Forgetting it breaks nothing: an empty entry still falls
back to the code text, and the next run fills it. `--check` exits 1
when a run would change the file, so it can gate a commit.
